合同实际履行与损害赔偿制度的经济学思考

合同违约责任的救济措施主要有实际履行与损害赔偿两种,大陆法系强调实际履行的重要性,而英美法系更注重损害赔偿的救济功能,从我国国情和微观经济学的角度出发,我国合同违约救济措施应采纳大陆法系的"严格的效率违约"理论,即原则上应以实际履行为主要救济措施,在实际履行明显不符合效率原则时强调损害赔偿的救济功能,只有这样才能使双方当事人付出的成本最低,而收益最大.

Economic Analysis on Specific Performance and Damage Compensation of Contract

The specific performance and the damage compensation are the two main remedies of contractual liability.The civil law system emphasizes the specific performance,however,the common law system pays attention to the function of the damage compensation.According to our national conditions and the microscopic economy,our contract law should adopt the civil law's "strict and efficient breach"system,that is to say,the specific performance should be the main remedy in principle,when the specific performance is inefficient,the damage compensation will substitute it.Only this can let the parties make more profits with lower costs.
